    Volvo Penta 5.7 Gi-E IAC Issue

    As first mentioned, the IAC should never read zero I don't know what you have but if throttle plate is closed and if IAC was closed the motor should die Most likely a vacuum leak

    Replace Bravo2 Lower Unit W/ Bravo

    All Bravo's use the same upper housings so long as they are not the older ones. You can change your B2 to a B3 and will like docking even more. With counter rotating props there is next to no side tracking when going in reverse. I use a B3 on my 10K cruiser
